Procmail probably does not like the write permissions for .procmailrc.

         Your system mailbox:    /var/spool/mail/root

as listed below...

        MAILDIR=$HOME/          #you'd better make sure it exists
#       DEFAULT=$MAILDIR/mbox   #completely optional
        LOGFILE=$MAILDIR/from   #recommended
